Ricky Bomba and I are pushing this with John.
Looks like 2/28 maybe the date.
We'd like to get a turnout like we use to. John has spent a lot of money upgrading the site with new servers, bandwidth etc. This is the one event where the money goes to keeping the light on here.
Let's start with who's bringing food. We usually are OK with this facet but we'd like to get this pinned down early.
I'll start with 3 cheese cakes, 3 dozen rolls and a case of water.
If you don't want to post what you will bring, PM me. I'm gonna set up a spreadsheet to keep track of all the food.

Kevin, it is usually at the VFW in Fairhaven MA. It is an absolute blast. John does an hour + Powerpoint of pictures from the site from the previous year and lots of other stuff. We have an Angler of the Year award, other awards including gag awards and a huge raffle of plugs, rods, fishing gear in general. All the stuff is donated and it's a hoot. Usually tons of great food, they have a cash bar, if you want to drink. I don't because it's about 150 mile r/t for me.
Can't be any further for you than it is for me.  |

Thanks. I'll save the date... may have been there for Plugfest a few years ago...??? OK. If you knew me when I did drink you'd know why I won't be drinking there either. :-o |

Greg,
You going to come? It could be just like old times. Whatever happened to our third partner in crime (was his name Don)? The DJ? |

You better come buddy, I'm swinging in for sure, been a few years due to scheduling conflicts. I'd bring some baits for the table, but there is still 3 feet of snow and ice in front of the access doors to the attic storage off my top deck; way too tired to lift another shovel. Greg if you are going to the RISSA show what time, I think I'm going to hit the show ahead of the diner.

what can we do to encourage a bigger turnout? this used to be pretty big and seems to get smaller yearly - it's still a good time but bigger is better
